The Fruit of Evolution Season 2: A Whimsical Isekai Adventure Levels Up with Mixed Results
The Fruit of Evolution: Before I Knew It, My Life Had It Made Season 2 (titled Shin Shinka no Mi: Shiranai Uchi ni Kachigumi Jinsei in Japanese) burst onto screens in January 2023, continuing the quirky isekai tale of Seiichi Hiiragi. Adapted from Miku’s light novel series, illustrated by U35, this 12-episode season, which ran from January 13 to March 31, 2023, dives into a new arc at the Barbador Magic Academy. Produced by Studio HOTLINE, Season 2 blends over-the-top comedy, heartfelt moments, and high-stakes action, but its bold stylistic choices and deviations from the source material have sparked polarized reactions. Here’s a refined look at what makes this season a unique, if imperfect, evolution.
A New Arc: Teaching and Taming Chaos
Season 2 shifts gears from Seiichi’s forest-bound adventures to the halls of Barbador Magic Academy, where he’s unexpectedly recruited as a teacher for Class F—a ragtag group of misfit students with peculiar abilities. After consuming the Fruit of Evolution, Seiichi transformed from a bullied high schooler into an overpowered hero, and now he must navigate the challenges of mentorship while confronting a looming threat: the Great Devil Order, a cult scheming to resurrect their deity by targeting the academy’s students.
The narrative weaves classroom antics, romantic developments, and intense battles. A key highlight is Seiichi’s reunion with his childhood friend, Kannazuki Karen, whose Enslavement Bracelet hints at darker forces manipulating the story. The season culminates in a climactic showdown with Destra, a formidable antagonist, revealing tantalizing secrets about the Fruit of Evolution and the world’s origins. While the arc retains the series’ signature absurdity, it struggles to balance its comedic excess with deeper plot threads, leaving some fans wanting more substance.
Characters: A Growing Cast and Harem Dynamics
The returning cast, bolstered by new additions, drives much of the season’s charm:
- Seiichi Hiiragi (voiced by Hiro Shimono): The self-conscious yet ridiculously powerful protagonist shines as a reluctant teacher, balancing humility with his god-tier abilities. His growth as a leader adds depth to his everyman appeal.
- Saria (voiced by Tetsu Inada pre-evolution, Kana Hanazawa post-evolution): Seiichi’s loyal “wife,” a Kaiser Kong with a human form, remains a fan favorite for her blend of strength, sweetness, and comedic timing.
- Artoria Gremm (voiced by Marina Inoue): The unlucky adventurer’s evolving bond with Seiichi adds romantic tension, though her development takes a backseat to the harem’s expansion.
- Kannazuki Karen (voiced by Yuka Iguchi): Her emotional reunion with Seiichi is a standout, with her mysterious circumstances deepening the narrative’s stakes.
- New Faces: Beatrice Rogner, Class F’s former teacher, and Destra (voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro), a chilling villain, add fresh dynamics. The eccentric Class F students, while amusing, sometimes overwhelm the story with their chaotic energy.
Production: A Bold but Divisive Aesthetic
Studio HOTLINE takes full reins of Season 2, replacing the collaborative effort of Feel and Children’s Playground Entertainment from Season 1. Directed by Shige Fukase under Yoshiaki Okumura’s supervision, the animation leans heavily into exaggerated, comic-book-style visuals, complete with fourth-wall-breaking gags and Japanese variety show-inspired humor. While this amplifies the series’ playful tone, it has drawn criticism for feeling disjointed compared to the first season’s more restrained approach.
The soundtrack remains a strength, with Nano’s energetic opening “Evolution” setting the stage and Erii Yamazaki’s tender ending “Adore Me” complementing the romantic subplots. The score, crafted by Hiroyasu Yano, Alisa Okehazama, and Yūki Saitō, enhances both the comedic and dramatic moments, though it can’t fully compensate for pacing issues.
Reception: A Love-It-or-Hate-It Adventure
Season 2 has proven divisive. Fans who embrace its unapologetic silliness laud its blend of isekai tropes, heartfelt character moments, and absurd humor, with some on social platforms like X calling it a “guilty pleasure masterpiece.” However, others criticize its divergence from the manga and light novels, particularly the omission of key arcs and characters in favor of random skits. The shift to a more cartoonish animation style has also split viewers, with some enjoying the bold creativity and others finding it jarring.
On MyAnimeList, the season holds a weighted mean score of around 4.8, reflecting its niche appeal. Reddit threads highlight a divide: some viewers revel in the chaos, while others dropped the series early, citing rushed pacing and a lack of focus. Despite the mixed reviews, the show’s accessibility on Crunchyroll (with subbed and dubbed options) and Amazon Video has kept it in the conversation.
Themes and Appeal: Embracing the Absurd
At its core, The Fruit of Evolution thrives on subverting isekai clichés while leaning into them. Seiichi’s journey from underdog to overpowered hero, paired with his earnest personality, resonates with fans of self-insert fantasies. Season 2’s Academy arc explores themes of growth, responsibility, and found family, though its heavy reliance on comedy sometimes overshadows these deeper elements. The harem dynamics, while predictable, add lighthearted charm, particularly through Saria’s unwavering devotion and Kannazuki’s emotional depth.
Verdict: A Flawed but Fun Evolution
The Fruit of Evolution Season 2 is a wild, uneven ride that doubles down on its quirky charm. The shift to the Barbador Magic Academy brings fresh stakes and character dynamics, but the exaggerated humor and animation changes may alienate fans of the source material or Season 1’s tone. For viewers who love chaotic isekai adventures and don’t mind a departure from tradition, it’s a delightful romp. Those seeking tighter storytelling or fidelity to the manga may find it lacking.
With no third season announced and Miku’s I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World taking precedence, the future of Seiichi’s story remains uncertain. Still, Season 2 offers enough laughs, heart, and surprises to keep fans entertained, even if it doesn’t quite reach the heights of its potential.
